Macallan Edition No.2 (75cl US Import)
A collectable Limited Edition that reflects the personality and creative spirit of the collaborators, represented by their personal selection of casks. The dried fruit and sherry noted of the Tevasa Casks selected by Bob Dalgarno; the spicy ginger of the Jose Miguel Martin Casks chosen by Sommelier Josep Roca; the rich green wood and toffee flavours of the Diego Martin Casks selected by head chef Joan Roca; and the light vanilla and citrus notes of the Vasyma American oak casks selected by pastry chef Jordi Roca come together in Edition No.2 to form rich layers of warmth and complex flavours.

Founded in 1824 by Alexander Reid, the Elchies Distillery as it was known initially, did not become the Macallan-Glenlivet in name until 1892. Since then, it has undergone massive expansion with Edrington and William Grant & Sons combining forces in 1999 to purchase Highland Distillers for £601 million. By then, the reputation of the distillery for its sherry-led style of whisky was already firmly in place. The new ownership model has enabled the distillery to produce new ranges, reach out to new demographics and establish itself as an international brand of quality. Bottles are Macallan are increasingly sought after for their commodity value and not the contents, which often are of high quality. Moving to a new distillery site in recent years, will in the long-term, allow Macallan to produce more and if needed, the old distillery sits idle despite being capable of producing 11 million litres before it closed in 2018.
